Larsen & Toubro, in a release, said that its power transmission & distribution (PTD) business has won an EPC order to undertake works under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) in Uttar Pradesh.
The release elaborated that the PTD business will undertake works for the development of infrastructure under RDSS. The scope of this “loss reduction” package includes asset mapping using Geospatial Information System (GIS).
This order is among the several domestic and international EPC orders that the PTD business was awarded.
The orders include an EPC mandate to build a 90-mw floating solar plant on the Omkareshwar Dam Reservoir in Madhya Pradesh. This water body, located in Khandwa district of the state, does not see much change in water level throughout the year and is emerging as one of the largest floating solar parks in the world, the release said.
